Testing is conducted on-site using portable equipment. We have everything we need, including power and water.

Results are delivered promptly and prior to leaving the property, along with practical recommendations specific to your mob and management goals.

We can map out future testing dates that align with your husbandry calendar. Our goal is to reduce your workload and help you make informed, clear choices for your livestock.

On Site Testing Process
(For On-Farm WEC Testing)
When should I request a worm egg count?
Here are our suggestions for properties within the Victorian winter rainfall region:
4-6 weeks following a rain event that has resulted in green pick.
7-10 days prior to mustering sheep for a management event (weaning, preg scanning, joining, pre lambing, etc).
Prior to your second summer drench.
If you suspect you have a worm problem- test! Worms may, or may not be, the culprit.
If your property has a problem with barber’s pole worm- conduct regular tests throughout the warmer months.
Regularly test weaners, especially after rain events.
Please give us a call so we can work our service in with your management calendar help you make testing as easy as possible.
